I’m sorry Lemmy, that I was not there when you were born. But the day I met you, i knew you were my future.

I had heard about lemmy a while back, but after having tried mastadon I thought Lemmy was just another Twitter clone so I did not try it until the api debacle.

I never knew the initial commit was on Valentine's Day. Also, very based how the very first commit is just the AGPL-3 license.

Dess should tell us why Valentines. Probably a missed date and vented out on AGPL-3 legendary code. If true, long live heartbreaks!
